Field of the Invention The present invention relates to the fabrication of integrated circuits, and more particularly to a field effect transistor (FET) having a metal gate electrode. [Prior Art] As the size of the transistor is reduced, it is necessary to reduce the gate oxide thickness to maintain the performance of the reduced gate length. However, in order to reduce the gate leakage, a high dielectric constant (high_k) gate dielectric film is used, which is the same as the conventional gate oxide used in maintaining larger technology nodes. It can have a higher physical thickness at equivalent thickness. In addition, as the technology node is reduced, in a part of the integrated circuit design, a metal gate electrode is required to replace the conventional polysilicon gate electrode, thereby improving the performance of the component having the reduced feature size. One of the processes for forming a metal gate is a "gate iast", a process in which the metal gate is finally formed to form 'and thus allows the gate electrode to be protected from certain high temperature processes', for example It is affected by the source/drain tempering process. Figure 1 is a cross-sectional view showing the conventional gate used in the field effect transistor 1 manufactured by the process, the back gate, and the process. A gate structure 120. Here, a 'field effect transistor 〇〇 is formed in the substrate ι2 and adjacent to one of the plurality of isolation regions 1-4. The field effect transistor 100.

The multi-layer metal gate 12A includes a lower portion 126 and an upper portion (18) formed above the gate dielectric layer 124. The portion 126 is composed of a first metal material having a first resistance value as a work function metal layer (WOrk-function metal hyer). The upper portion 128 is formed as an interconnect metal layer and has A second metal material having a second resistance value lower than one of the first resistance values is formed. The upper portion 128 having a lower resistance value occupies only a small area of the multi-layer metal gate 12a. Injury, it can be observed that the multi-layer metal gate 120a will exhibit a higher gate resistance value, which will increase the circuit's RC delay and degrade the device performance. > There is a need for a metal gate electrode having a lower gate resistance value for a gate structure.

The first metal material 326 can be formed by chemical vapor deposition (CVD), physical vapor deposition (PVD), or other suitable technique. The first metal material 326 has a first resistance value. The first metal material 326 has a thickness of between 30 and 150 angstroms. The first metallic material 326 can include a stacked film layer of one of the work function metals. In one embodiment, the first metal material 326 for an NMOS may include Ti, Ta, TiA, or a compound including a work function metal such as C and/or N. In another embodiment, the first metal material 326 for a PMOS may comprise Ti, Ta, Co, alloys thereof, or work function metals including C and/or N. In some embodiments, the stacked film layer may include a barrier metal 0503-A34608TWF/shawnchang 11 201123448 layer, a liner metal layer or a wetting metal layer. Referring to Figures 2 and 3C, method 200 proceeds to step 206 by depositing a sacrificial layer 327 over first metal material 326 to fill first recess 326a and trench 325. The sacrificial layer 327 may comprise a polysilicon, photoresist or spin-coated dielectric layer, but is also limited to the materials described above. The sacrificial layer 327 can be formed by chemical vapor deposition (CVD), physical vapor deposition (PVD), atomic layer deposition (ALD), spin coating, or other suitable technique. The thickness of the sacrificial layer 327 is determined by the depth of the first recess 326a and the groove 325. As such, the sacrificial layer 327 is deposited until the first recess 326a and the trench 325 are substantially filled. Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3D, the method 200 proceeds to step 208 to perform a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process to remove the sacrificial layer 327, the first metal material 326 and the gate dielectric layer 324 outside the trench 325. One part. As such, the CMP process will stop when it reaches the interlayer dielectric layer 314 and thus provide a generally flat surface. Alternatively, the above removal can also be achieved by a dry etch and/or wet etch process. Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3E, the method 200 then proceeds to step 210 to remove an upper portion of the first metal material 326 via an etching process to form a second recess 326b of the first metal material 326. The etching process can include a dry etch process and or a wet etch process. For example, the wet etch chemistry can include SC-1 or SPM, and may have an oxidant such as H202, and is applied at a temperature below 70 °C to selectively remove the upper portion of the first metal material 326. For example, the etch chemistry used in dry etching can include BC 13 to selectively remove the upper portion of the first metal material 0503-A34608TWF/shawnchang 12 201123448 326. The etch process forms a second recess 326b in the first metal material 326 of the trench 325. The second recess 326b of the first metal material 326 located in the trench 325 can have a depth of between about 50 and 2700 angstroms. This depth can be achieved by adjusting different parameters of the etch process, such as time and etch chemistry. Furthermore, the sacrificial layer 327 may not be used as a protective layer in the etching process unless the removal rate is not large enough. In one embodiment, the ratio of the removal rate of the etch chemistry to the first metal material 326 and the sacrificial layer 327 is preferably greater than 10. Moreover, when the gate dielectric layer 324 is destroyed by the residual chemical, it will become a defect source in the subsequent process and thereby increase the possibility of leakage current. In one embodiment, the ratio of removal rates of the etch chemistry to the first metal material 326 and the gate dielectric material 324 is preferably greater than 20. In the present embodiment, the remaining portion of the first metal material 326 located in the trench 327 forms a lower portion of the modified metal gate 320a. This lower part is generally U-shaped. Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3F, the method 200 then proceeds to step 212 to remove the sacrificial layer 327 remaining in the trench 325 via another etching process to expose the first recess 326a of the first metal material 326. . And the etching process may include a dry etching process and/or a wet etching process. For example, the etch chemistry used to selectively remove dry/wet etch of sacrificial layer 327 remaining in trench 325 may include F, C1, and Br based chemistries. When the first metal material 326 adjacent to the first recess 326a is eroded by the etch chemistry, the work function of the metal will be altered and, in turn, the likelihood of device failure will increase. In one embodiment, the ratio of removal rate of the etchant to the sacrificial layer 327 and the first metal material 326 is preferably 0503-A34608TWF/shawnchang 13 201123448 at ίο. Referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3G FIG. 214, a second metal material 328 is deposited; and the step is rotated to fill the first recess 326 of the first metal material 326. The first recess 3 and the second recess of the first metal material are hereinafter referred to as the barrier layer 325, and the barrier layer is formed by the "metal" material, thereby forming the barrier layer by the "Ti'Ta'TiN. , TaN__ into a private group of materials. The thickness of the barrier layer can be 50 angstroms by CVD, PVD, and ALD5. In the barrier layer embodiment, the barrier layer is formed due to the barrier acoustics. The barrier layer also has a south resistance value. Therefore, no resistance is used. Continuing to refer to Fig. 2 and the second diagram, a second metal material 328 is deposited on top to fill the upper portion of the trench 325. In this embodiment, the second metal material 328 may comprise a material selected from the group consisting of AH C 〇 and W. The second metallic material may be formed by =D, PVD, electroplating, spin coating, atomic layer deposition, or the like. The second metal material 328 has a second resistance value. The second resistance value is lower than the first resistance value. For example, the resistance value of A1 (: 2.65 from 〇.) is less than 1^ (about 20 (^ 〇,)). The thickness of the second metal material 328 can be according to the depth of the upper portion of the trench 325: Thus, the second metal material 328 is deposited until it substantially fills the upper portion of the trench 325. 3 Refer to Figures 2 and 3H, and then proceed to step 0503-A34608TWF/shawnchang 14 201123448 216' to implement a chemical machine The outer second metal material 32:: removes the leaves located in the trench 325. Thus, the cMp program dielectric layer 314 will stop, due to the arrival of the layers

The modified metal gate structure 32A includes a lower portion composed of a first metal material 326 having a first notch gamma and a first resistance value. This lower part is generally U-shaped. It will be understood that the present invention is not limited by the above embodiments. The lower portion can be generally L-shaped or otherwise shaped. The lower portion has a maximum height 326e of between 300 and 2900 angstroms. The modified metal gate 320a further includes an upper portion formed by a second metal material 328 having a protrusion 328a extending into the recess and a second resistance value. This upper portion may further include a metal strip 328b and is generally in the shape of a τ. It is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the embodiments described above. The upper portion can be generally L-shaped or otherwise shaped. The upper portion has a minimum height 328c of between 5 〇 and 27 〇〇 angstroms. In addition, the projection 328a extends into the recess 326a. The first resistance value is lower than the first resistance value. The upper portion 328 having a lower resistance value in the modified metal gate electrode 320a at this time has a larger area ratio than the conventional metal gate electrode 120a as shown in Fig. 1. Thus, the modified metal gate electrode has a lower gate resistance value than the conventional metal gate electrode 120a. Such a lower gate resistance value of 0503-A34608TWF/shawnchang 15 201123448 can reduce the resistance delay of the circuit and the performance of the lifting device. It will be appreciated that the field effect transistor 300 can be implemented by other CMOS fabrication processes to form a plurality of components such as contacts/interlayers, interconnect metal layers, dielectric layers, protective layers, and the like. It can be observed that the use of the modified metal gate electrode 320a as the gate contact material reduces the gate resistance values of the NMOS and PMOS. While the present invention has been described in its preferred embodiments, the present invention is not intended to limit the invention, and the invention may be modified and retouched without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. The scope of protection is subject to the definition of the scope of the patent application attached. 0503-A34608TWF/shawnchang 16 201123448 [Simple diagram of the diagram] The first diagram for the field effect transistor is shown as a cross-sectional view of the conventional gate structure; the second diagram is a flow chart showing the gate of the example The manufacturing method of the structure; and the different implementations of the -3A-3H are a series of sectional views showing (4) as in the case of the first.
